How much have you lost in Month 1?...I just need to get a general indication



Recommended Posts

I lost 20 pounds each the first two months, then 15 the third, I am now more than for months out. I lost 5 pounds in month 4. Between months three and four I started eating regular food. I think that explains my drastic slow down. In the first two weeks of month 5, I have already lost about 3 pounds so I think my combination of working out religiously and eating carefully has helped already.

Sounds like you are doing well!

I'm 9 weeks post op and down 40lbs. My 1st month i dropped about 27lbs. As time goes by i look at the avg of what I'm loosing and strive to hit that goal every week. I'm averaging 4.5lbs lost a week. Also i hit a plateau for 2 weeks right at week 3 post op which seems very common

I lost about 24lbs the first month. My weight loss has been plagued by slowness compared to people my size who had wls. It just is what it is, but I'm still chugging along. I was 386 on the day of surgery and 362 a month out. Unlike most people, I think month 3 was my best month.

Very inspiring. I'm now 8 days out and went against my own rule and gave in to the scale today. 13 lbs since day of surgery. Holy moly ![emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
